The Westside Jewish Young Professionals

The Westside Jewish Young Professionals is a young adult social group launched by Kehillat Ma’arav, a Conservative synagogue serving Santa Monica and the greater Westside of Los Angeles. Open to Jewish young professionals ages 21-45, the group creates casual, low-commitment ways for young adults to connect with one another and with Jewish life.

Programming includes monthly happy hours, a Friday night Oneg following Shabbat services, singles events, and other social gatherings throughout the year. The group is designed to be a welcoming entry point for young professionals in the area who want to build community, meet other Jewish peers, and enjoy social events with a Jewish flavor.

As an initiative of Kehillat Ma’arav, the Westside Jewish Young Professionals benefits from the synagogue’s broader mission of fostering a welcoming, participatory Jewish community rooted in tradition, education, and spiritual growth.
